What would happen is that the governnent would see an immediate shortfall in its budgetary demands, thus forcing it to make drastic cuts in spending (just like the rest of us). Entire agencies would be forced to close. After a couple of weeks, the people woukd begin to realize that those agencies were unnecessary to begin with.

But then with this administration, they would refuse to act, allow checks to bounce, bonds to default, and then blame Bush for it.

Well that may not be a bad thing if the Gov. had to do that. Course the special interest groups would have their pants in a knot no matter what areas they would cut. We can do without many of those Agencies but I have reservations they would cut any Government positions. More likely the man on the street.

Yes, this administration would use “the crisis” for political means...no doubt. Golly I detest them and what they are doing!

Great idea. I’m ordering my own first thing in the morning.
